In recognition of the great debt we owe an ever-advancing power, we have selected UTHE SCIENCES!! as the theme of our ONEIDA. In time to come you may use your ONEIDA as a telescope to bring from far away the faces which have grown dim over the space of time that sep- arates you from high school years. We hope that as time goes on our ONEIDA will grow, that our school will grow, that you will grow, and that science will continue its steady advance for the betterment of mankind. S-if DEDIC TIU BECAUSE of the fine spirit of co-operation and the high degree of interest in us they have dis- played, we the class of nineteen hun- dred and forty dedicate our issue of the ONEIDA to Miss INEZ M.

The alchemist with his foolish search has given way to a more serious type of research. Certain thinkers begin to wonder at things around them. They investigate, their investigation leads to careful experimentation and inquiry . . . they are on the way to discovery. ic if wk' The student is entering his second year of high school. His first year has prepared him for that which lies aheadg he is becoming interested in things which formerly were beyond his under- standing. He is being molded and shaped for the really great opportuni- ties ahead. 1 1940 ONEIDA if-Vx Q- YXQHQNMA SQJFHUMUHE GLASS SFAS' xi Whig ee o wbofigi 147 Libs Kgflguudy in JCW Vdrvwlo H Seated-Gold.

Day at last has broken. vt A' at No longer need scientists gropc in a world dark with ignoranceg the light of discovery has brightened the future as well as the present of mankind. New inventions in the line of machinery make man's daily tasks lighter. Surely man has just begun to live. 'A' i' if With his third year of high school life at hand, our student finds himself better equipped and to a higher degree mentally prepared to face and overcome that which lies ahead of him.

Still further must the scientist probe to turn the light of knowledge into these dark places. The march of science has not yet reached its zenith. 'k 'k i' The fourth and final year of public school instruction has been reached at last. The student finds himself about to be turned out into a strange new world. He has been Well trained but there are still many facts of life to be learned which can best be conquered when confronted. His formal educa- tion is complete perhaps, but never will he stop learning until the day his sands are run. 1940 ONEIDA SENIOR CLASS Seated-Miller, Eyster Standing--Frantz, Grenoble OFFICERS ROBERT FRANTZ - - - - - PAUL EYSTER Vice JEAN MILLER - - - FRED GRENOBLE - President President Secretary Treasurer Page Thirty-three , 4 1940 ONEIDA BE RICE 3 'Y - Gym Teamg ls, Ensez e.

Grenoble c Ififty-fn AGRICULTURE CLASS 1940 ONEIDA MAY DAY This year, as in the past, a May Day was held, sponsored by the Girls' League. The queen-elect for this year, Ruth Harris, was presented with the crown by the previous year's queen, Doris Ranck. The queen was attended by her court, consisting of girls from the Senior and Junior classes. The theme for the day was the representation of the four seasons of the year. Autumn was represented by a dance of leavesg Winter, by a dance of snowfiakesg Spring, by a dance of birds, and Summer, by a dance of roses. Tableaux presenting different phases of school life were staged between each dance. A girls' chorus sang selections in keeping with the central theme. The traditional May Pole dance concluded the program. as AGRICULTURE CLASS Progressing as all sciences have, the Agriculture Class, now in its eleventh year, has advanced in tremendous strides. This progress takes the form of new features added to the curriculum every year. During this year, through the addition of new equipment, the class provides a course in manual training which excels that of previous Vears. The enrollment has increased from six boys in 1928 to forty- eight this year, a record for the department. The Agriculture Class is an example of a steadily growing project that teaches in a short period knowledge that has taken the world centuries to obtain. Page Fifty tive l 4 L . L 1940 ONEIDA CHRISTMAS CARUL SERVICE The annual Christmas Carol Service was given on VVednesday evening, December twentieth, at 8:40 oyclock in the high school auditorium. The carolers included members of the Girls' Ensemble, Boys' Glee Club, and other boys and girls from the high school who wished to sing. ' The audience was seated near the front of the auditorium, while tl1e carolers marched in and sat at the back, where they sang their songs. The effect of this arrangement, with the soft harmonious voices, made the service very stirring. The lnusic included ten unusual carols taken from The Oxford Book of Carols, perhaps the finest of sources for interesting ma- terial. Carols, ancient and modern, and children's Christmas hymns brought the true spiritual meaning of the season to the listeners. 225, THE MASQUE The Masque, commonly known as the Lewisburg High School Dramatic Club, consists of twenty-two members who meet on the first Monday of each month. Early in the school year, the Masque presented three one-act plays, The Lovely Miraclef' The Crystal Gentleman, and The Bronze Lady, given by members of the Senior, Sophomore, and Junior Classes, respectively. Later in the year, under the direction of Miss Creasy, they pre- sented Alice Blue Gown, sponsored by the Girls' League. Be Home at Midnightu and The Great Allowance Battle were given late in the year.

The Ensemble consists of forty girls who spend many hours of their time practicing for an hour once a week during school time, and often many nights after school. Much of their time is spent on studying the art of presentation as well as the techniques of singing. Throughout the school year, the girls entertain various organiza- tions with their songs. The most outstanding event of the year is the Christmas Carol Service in whicI1 the Ensemble, united with the Boys' Glee Club, is the central figure. Among the selections that were chosen by the Ensemble this year are motets and art songs of the old masters, such as Schubert, Brahms, Bortniansky, and Bach. V as BUYS' GLEE CLUB Now in its second year, the Boys' Glee Club, under the super- vision of Mr. Ford, is a popular organization. Formed to give those boys who like singing an opportunity, the club has a prominent part in the school activities. On their calendar are appearances in chapel, cI1ureI1es, Christmas Carol Service, P. T. A. meetings, and Fathers' Day Banquet. A In their efforts to develop and perfect their singing, the boys have gone far, with benefits to themselves and service to others. Page Fiftt nine if 'L 1940 ONEIDA GYM,TEAM The Gym Team was selected by Miss Blandy and Mr. Henning from a group carefully chosen by means of tests that indicated the abilities of boys and girls in gym work. Dancing, marching, exer- cises on mats, bars, and springboards constituted the program out- lined for the late winter and spring season. Toward the end of the school year the team participated in several school events. SZ? CHEERLEADERS Several new additions to our cheerleaders this year seemed to improve our cheering section. VVorking hard to pep up our teams and leading our student body in many cheers, these loyal persons did much to urge our teams to victory. They also found a place for acrobatics in some of our cheers. We wish to thank them for their kind but noisy work. Fred Getz headed the group with Gloria Bowes, John Oberdorf, Richard Baker, and James Heiter as assistants.

This year the Sophomore team won the soccer championship after a very complicated season. In the first series of games all the teams were tied as a result of each team's having won one game, lost one, and tied one game. In the second series, the Juniors defeated the Seniors and the Sophomores defeated the Freshmen. In the play-off between the Sophomores and Juniors, the Sophomores won by a score of 4-2. Student managers, captains, and referees took charge of these competitive events.

Included in these were the bowling club, etiquette club, ping-pong, and bad- minton club, and dancing club. For the second semester it was decided that the girls would have general meetings in the auditorium and be entertained and advised in a series of lectures by prominent citizens of the town. These assembly gatherings were most profitable. 12251 SUNG UE THE GREEN DRAGON With the leadership of David Gold, the boys began the year's work by having general meetings where they heard valuable lectures given by prominent people of the town. The first man to speak to the boys was District Attorney Showers on Being a Lawyer. Among the others who came to the school, were J. C. Hughes, a representative of General Motors Corporation, speaking and giving examples of some future possibilities for more synthetic processes. Sergeant Lantz lectured on Policemen,,' while Mr. John Plant gave the boys several helpful points on Getting a Job. A lecture proving most interesting was on the subject Guns,,' given by Professor John B. Miller, of Bucknell University. The boys have participated in other activities such as the father- son banquet and the annual school fair.

He is now revealing an invention to take us into the future. A screen comes to life, a man appears, speaking softly: In review will pass some of Lewisburg's prominent citizens in the year of our Lord 1960. Why, this is quiet little Lewisburg! As we go down the main street, two shops with glaring windows attract our attention. We read in large letters, No matter how badly the world thinks of your face, we can alter your portrait, signed, Fred K. Getz, photogra- pher. The other reads that the work can be done more cheaply, signed, Raymond Wilson, proprietor. There pass two persons whom we recognize instantly. One is exclaiming how he has proved science is all wrongg the other attempts to quiet these ravings: That's all right, Dave, quiet downf, We discover thc speaker John has become blind from having worn loud shirts during his earlier years. As the camera continues we find our Eleanor attempting to get to Perkiomen to watch Charlie conduct graduation exercises there. Here is a boy grasping some wilted flowers. Why, it's .lim Wain- wright trying to find a ride to Mazeppa. The machine finds another couple journeying down the street. A boy, Bill, carries a box of candy. Turning to the girl, he explains that his only reason for going to thc doctor is that he is ill. She winks knowingly and complains about her falling arches. Under her arm is a newspaper with head lines, Coopcr's basketball aces triumph over Beatrice Aikey's MdTU6lS.,, See the large crowd gathering around a man who seems familiar! Why, it's Paul Eyster! He's paying his debts! At this point even the machine can't take tl1e blow and breaks into a thousand pieces. As the explosion clears there are some words still remaining on the screen: All similarities to members of the class of forty are not purely accidental. Page Seventy-f our 1940 ONEIDA 111-l1 .
